Vitamin C

A water-soluble vitamin characterized by its four OH groups, making it highly polar and able to form hydrogen bonds with water.

2
New cards

Vitamin K3

A fat-soluble vitamin that is nonpolar due to its symmetrical molecular structure that cancels the polarity.

New cards

Solubility Checklist

A list of criteria to evaluate solubility, including identifying polar/ionic vs. nonpolar regions, hydrogen bond donors/acceptors, symmetry, and applying the principle of 'like dissolves like'.

4
New cards

Aqueous Solutions

The most common type of liquid solutions where water is the solvent.

5
New cards

Miscibility

The ability of two liquids to mix in any proportion to form a solution, such as ethanol and water.

6
New cards

Molarity

The concentration of a solution expressed as moles of solute per liter of solution.

7
New cards

Molality

A concentration measure defined as moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.

8
New cards

Percent by Mass

A concentration measure defined as the mass of solute divided by the total mass of solution, multiplied by 100 percent.

9
New cards

Mole Fraction (X)

The ratio of moles of a component to the total moles of all components in a solution.

10
New cards

Saturated Solution

A solution that contains the maximum concentration of solute possible for a given temperature and pressure.

11
New cards

Unsaturated Solution

A solution that can still dissolve more solute, indicating a concentration less than the solubility limit.

12
New cards

Supersaturated Solution

A nonequilibrium state where the concentration of solute exceeds solubility, leading to potential crystal growth.

13
New cards

Temperature Dependence of Solubility

The general principle that solubility of solids in water typically increases with temperature.

14
New cards

Clausius-Clapeyron Equation

An equation that estimates the vapor pressure at different temperatures based on the known vapor pressure and enthalpy of vaporization.

15
New cards

Solubility Curve

A graph that shows the amount of solute that can dissolve in a given amount of solvent at different temperatures.
